In this episode, Pamela and I discuss the concept known as "body neutrality" and how it can assist us in shifting our perspective in a healthy way. 

We talk about how being body neutral allows us to fall in love with the process, take pride in working towards our goals, and give us a hand in not shaming ourselves to a "perfect" body.

We talk about how to reframe what it means to view our bodies in a much more accepting and forgiving way. A mindset that allows us to progress through life and all of the different seasons that our bodies will ultimately go through.

Time Stamps:
